ELLSWORTH – The Ellsworth Public Library invites community members of all ages to join a special group visit to the 2025 Poet-Artist Collaboration Exhibit at the Red Wing Arts Depot Gallery from 3:30-5:30 p.m. Thursday, June 5.

This extraordinary exhibit pairs 25 poets with 25 visual artists, each creating original artwork inspired by a selected poem. The result is a powerful fusion of word and image—each piece telling a unique story through both language and visual interpretation. The exhibit also includes work by the two jurors for this year’s event, all beautifully presented in the event’s annual Chapbook.
A group will depart from the Ellsworth Public Library at 3 p.m. and return by 6 p.m. Those needing transportation are encouraged to reserve a seat in advance by calling the library at 715-273-3209. Participants are also welcome to carpool or meet the group directly at the gallery.
